Trying to find a song

melannenThere is a song that I swear I had on MP3 on a hard drive that died.
It had the line "I do not believe I will ever marry" (or something very close to that) in the lyrics, repeated a least a few times - but it wasn't the traditional ballad with the refrain "I never will marry, I'll be no man's wife" (or if it was, it was a fairly major revision of it.)
It was sung by a female singer in the first person, and it wasn't about a tragic lost love like the traditional ballad; just about a woman who had decided she was never going to marry and was resigned to the fact. It was sort of in the folk/rockabilly/country/blues spectrum somewhere and had fairly simple instrumentals with the woman's voice the focus of the music.
I've tried googling the bit of lyrics I remember, but I'm getting nothing helpful: I had a lot of fairly obscure/unsigned folky type stuff on that drive, so it's possible the lyrics aren't online. Does anyone know this song?
